Good Day To You MadDog:
I must say I am always so impressed with what you post. You always have the best collection of memorabilia of Ian and Tull that I have ever seen in my 40 years of being a fan.
Thank you.
Regards,
Silken...

Thanks Tullist & Silkenmist. Makes the years of collecting worthwhile. Couple of oddities, not valuable but strange in some ways: 1987 reissue of LITP/Witch's Promise on Old Gold records Fallen On Hard Times/Broadsword. Not the usual issue with the blue plastic label, but the white to blue label with the record pressed from the same master stamper which was used for the picture disc version. Marked on the label "Made In The UK" so it may have been for export.

Three interesting Tull 7" items from the green Chrysalis era First pressing "Soltice Bells" with the "taken from the forthcoming album . . . " credit. Later pressings omitted this. Purchased this in an Oxfam shop many moons ago. Didn't take the sticker off so as not to rip the label "Minstrel . . ." promo with large "A" and a feint date stamp of 22 AUG 1975

Dear Maddog Sorry not to have paid you a visit yet – my wife is content to visit Race Hill on her own these days since she now has her own car. Sir, I am impressed by your collection of “45” covers. It is a pity you were not contacted when the JT re-issue programme was underway – then all your covers could have been included within the notes – see the excellent work done during the Free and Moody Blues re-releases, to name but a few. One question. As JT “stuff” is not the most collectable of items vs. say Pink Floyd, The Beatles etc, what makes you spend your “hard earned” on these items? Still, as previously mentioned by another member, thanks to you and others like you, we can all still enjoy these viewing these 45’s which we borrowed from friends in days/decades gone by. Have a peaceful Christmas. Regards Gerry @ Bath

Have a peaceful Christmas. Regards Gerry @ Bath Thanks Gerry. As for vinyl records, especially singles, I started collecting them as a youngster and when the Jethro Tull "thing" kicked in when I was a little bit older I bought every issue as it was released here in the UK. Over the years, like many vinylholics, I've bought continental releases as and when I could afford them and I still drool over some of the 45's on the internet especially ebay and the like. Mind you, like most folks, I regret mislaying records at parties and ones loaned to people who you never see again. Lost my copy of the Cyril Davis EP many years ago for example which introduced me to the blues and I'm saving my hard earned wonga to get a replacement copy of that one as I speak. Anyway, it's good to know that the images are appreciated. Cheers Maddog

Interesting & very much appreciated, Maddog. "When the Jethro Tull "thing" kicked in." I like that.

It's rather like a "conversion of Saul" moment when you suddenly realise that here is a band, as in my case, that you can really understand and empathise with. Probably "thing" is to broad a description but I reckon you know what I mean. Would probably make a great university thesis.

Yes, I know what you mean. Since 1972 for me. It was like walking into light, then. Of course the complete Brick in concert kinda helped. Cheers!

And that's why, for me at least, the opening bars of "My Sunday Feeling" will always bring back the memory of buying "This Was" (in mono) at a very small record shop just next to West Croydon railway station and catching the bus back home and then blasting the music out from my "Echo" record player which really p1ssed of my Mum & Dad and the rest of the family ;D I'd bought the first Island Records singles more or less as they were issued here in the UK, but "This Was" was on a different level.

Two offerings from Austalia/New Zealand that I aquired recently. Different recording companies but both distributed by Festival Records.
